SHORT LOCALS.
'
Brief Items of Interest Throughout |
the Town and County.
A good rain fell Tuesday in Bam-"
berg and vicinity, the first in about
three weeks.
The friends of Mr. Charlie Mitchell
are glad to see him in the ticket
office after several days' illness.
The board of county commissioners
held the regular monthly meeting
Monday. Only routine matters were
transacted.
Large congregations will no doubt
attend the church services next Sunday,
as it is Easter and people will
want to show their new clothes.
Good progress is being made on
the Bamberg-Denmark road. Supervisor
Bruce says the road will be
completed in about three months.
Monday was the first Monday in
the month, but there were no public
sales and few people from the country
came to town. They are too busy
now to visit much.
Messrs. J. A. Hunter, G. D. Ryan
and A. M. Denbow, of Bamberg,
motored over to Barnwell Thursday
and attended the barbecue at
Hagood's mill in honor of Judge
Sease.?Barnwell People.
A commission has been issued by
the secretary of State to the Home
Building and Loan association, of
Bamberg, with a capital stock of
nafitinnora hoin? Dr.
, V,VUU, IIIC M mw?Q
George F. Hair and Mr. W. Des,
Portes Coleman.
Rev. W. R. McMillan assisted
in the dedication of the new Baptist
church at Hilda on Sunday. In
his absence, Rev. Mr, Bozeman,
traveling representative of the Baptist
Courier, preached at the*Baptist
church, morning and evening.
Mr. W. D. Rhoad says the races
are certainly mixed up badly in Cuba,
and it is a pretty hard matter to
tell who is really white. He also
says there is considerable social
equality among the races, that he
saw all colors at a masquerade ball,
all dancing together.
;C -,
The new county board of registration
met at the court house Monday
of this week, this being their first ;
meeting. The board organized and
elected Geo. J. Hiers chairman. Themembers
of the board are: Geo. J.
wi^re "Rhrhardt: Geo. Turner. Den
Mark; J. G. Rhoad, Fishpond.
The rails of the Bamberg-Ehrhardt
railroad are laid to a point
just outside of town, and the whistle
of the locomotive can be plainly
heard. There is some work to
be done on the Lemon swamp trestle,
and this will cause some delay.
Otherwise the rails would be laid to
town this week.
T
We learn that Mr. H. W. McMillan,
the new depot agent, will occupy
the residence of Capt. W. R. Wright,
on Bridge street. Capt. Wright's
family will move either to Savannah
or Augusta. At present Mrs. Wright
and daughter are spending a while
in the country with her daughter,
Mrs. B. F. Hill.
Supervisor Bruce tells us that he
started w<-rk last Friday on the new
road from Bamberg to Denmark.
Work was started on the Denmark
end. He proposes to make this the
widest and best road in the county,
and it should be, as it is the most
important highway we have. The
work is being done with the county
chain gang.
If you don't believe that advertising
pays, ask any patron of The Herald.
Two weeks ago Mr. H. M.
Graham advertised that he was starting
a new series of the Standard
Building & Loan Association, and
he showed us letters from a number
of out-of-town parties stating they
had seen the advertisement and
wanted some shares. He says the
advertisement paid him handsomely.
Advertising in The Herald certainly
pays, &s our advertising patronage
has increased very much over
what it formerly was. In fact we
are growing a little all the time, for
which we thank our customers and
for which we try to give them full
value for their money. Our circulation
continues to grow steadily. We
have added more new subscribers
this year so rar man ever ueiore
except when we were running a contest.
Some Fish Story.
As a disciple of the mighty Ximrod,
Mr. Roy Kearse, of Ehrhardt,
has entrenched himself behind a
most enviable record. A few days
since he drew forth a bag net with
the following variety of water dwellers:
One alligator, three "cooters,"
one cat fish, one trout, one "sucker,"
and four perch. If there is one in
Bamberg county who can beat this
for a single catch, we would like to
know it.

Baseball Game.
Carlisle School baseball team opens
the 1914 season, at Rhoad Park, next
Thursday, April the 9th, with the
unarieston nign scnuoi aggicgauuu.
The team has. been doing hai*d work
and has had a few practice games.
They are going in to defend their
title as the State prep champions for
another year. The game will be called
at 4.00 o'clock promptly. Let
everybody come out and see the
game.
Glendale Spring.
This spring, on the plantation of
Col. Jno. F. Folk, is getting to be
a most popular resort for people in
town. A number of people go out
there every day to get the water,
and it is no unusual sight to see three
or four automobiles at the spring at
one c. Numbers of people bring
thr water home with them, some of
' jem drinking no other water. All
who have tasted the water are charmed
with it. It is certainly a fine waver,
and the analysis shows t to have
considerable medical properties
which are beneficial to anybody.
The flow of the spring has increased
very much recently, owing to
imDrovements which Col. Folk has
made. The flow now is something
like seventy gallons a minute, a
four inch iron pipe has been put
down to the rock and the flow of water
fills this pipe, it flowing out at
the top and falling over like a fountain
into the cement basin. The water
has also broken out in nearby
places, and Col. Folk will soon have
a much larger basin put in and try
to control the flow. It is his idea
that the spring is really located a
short distance from where it springs
out, and that the water is now coming
out through fissures in the rock.
He will endeavor to locate the exact
spot where the spring really comes
from.
There is no question but that the
spring is susceptible to development,
and it may be piped to town or a
regular resort be made of the place.
It is certainly beautifully situated
for development.
Married" in Spartanburg.
The following clipping from the
Spartanburg Herald will be of interest
to the many friends of the bride,
as she with her parents formerly lived
at Denmark, this county:
A marriage which came as a delightful
surprise to friends, not only
in this city, but throughout the State,
occurred yesterday morning at 11
o'clock at the home of the bride's
parents on Woodward street, when
.Miss Ethel Kearse was united in marriage
to John Ray Simpson.
Rev. E. S. Alderman, pastor of the
First Baptist church, performed the
ceremony in the presence of a few
friends and relatives.
Mr. and Mrs. Simpson left at noon
for Atiania ana ouier puims, ?uuc
they will spend their honeymoon and
on their return will be at home to
their friends on North Dean street.
Mrs. Simpson is originally from the
lower part of the State, but since
coming to Spartanburg has made
many friends who will read of her
marriage with pleasurable interest.
She was formerly stenographer for
The Herald.
Mr. Simpson is from Laurens, but
now holds a position in this city,
where he has made many friends,
who hold him in the highest esteem.
The following announcements were
mailed to-day:
Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Kearse announce
the marriage of their daughter,
Ethel Mary to John Ray Simpson,
Tuesday, March 31, 1914, Spartanburg,
South Carolina. At home
after April 10, 221 North Dean
street. I

Cement Horse Trough.
On his Glendale plantation a fewdays
ago Col. Jno. F. Folk showed
us a new departure for this country.
He had recently put in a well curb of
brick and a cement horse trough.
He had made a most excellent trough
of large size for the small amount of^
$3.20, and it will last a life time.
One of lumber would have cost nearly
or quite as much and it would have
been rotten in a few years. He had
the mould of the trough made from
cheap lumber and into the mold was
poured the cement and sand after it
was mixed. When the mixture hardened
the mold was removed. This
is a movement that could be followed
with profit by many-of our large
farmers, especially as lumber is getting
higher and the quality poorer
all the time.
